D-Wars (or Dragon Wars) is director Shim Hyung Rae’s (심형래) most anticipated film and is reportedly the biggest budgeted South Korean film to date. It opened in Korean cinemas on August 1st, 2007 selling a whopping 5 million tickets under two weeks. The entire movie’s visual effects were completed with Korean CG technology. Despite it being a Korean film, it stars an all American cast… hmmm.
